Ranking the 5 toughest WRs Trevon Diggs will have to face in 2022
Coming in at No. 2 is the Week 2 matchup against Cincinnati Bengal rising star receiver Ja’Marr Chase. Chase burst onto the scene last season with three 100+ yard performances in his first seven games, including a 201-yard showing against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. He also logged 25 catches for 368 yards in the playoffs en route to a Super Bowl appearance.
Chase had a historic season for a rookie pass-catcher and he is around to stay. This will be one of Diggs’ toughest draws and he will be seeing the 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year a lot in their matchup.
Last season, Chase played 82% of his snaps on the outside. Diggs spent 84.6% of his snaps covering the outside receiver, so this matchup will be extremely pivotal for how the game plays out. Coming off of seasons where each player seemed to get better as the season progressed, if they can pick up where they left off, this will be one football fans won’t want to miss.
